Nine ex rulers face accusers in Argentine genocide trial
In Buenos Aires the nine former military rulers, including three ex presidents, sit before judges as prosecutors begin the case into disappearances, torture, and deaths during Argentina’s Dirty War from 1976 to 1982. The trial marks the first time the defendants attend court. The group faces charges from Raul Alfonsin’s civilian government, with prosecutors given 20 hours to present the case.
